A collaboration between drone artist MIKE SHIFLET and folk songwriter JERRY DECICCA. in 2002, DeCicca and Shiflet spent four hours together on first meeting in a Ford Taurus for a shared bill: The Black Swans, Mike Shiflet, and 26 other artists in a sandwich shop/sauna. The gig was so horrible not a note was played between them and DeCicca shuttled them away, the drive home infinitely more rewarding. (Footnote: the promoter was arrested years later for video taping women in bathrooms without their knowledge.) Bond forging is one thing. Record making another. It took another decade and some change, but the two finally managed to join forces and transform an empty gallery into a makeshift studio space. DeCicca crawled into Shiftlet's world with an electric guitar and a notebook. There were two microphones, a tiny bass amp, computers, electronics, and power strips.
